Digital screens are among the primary media that play a crucial role in the reproduction of values. These media provide a set of behaviours that children may perceive as models and imitate, as they are unable to filter what they see. However, the content presented in these media, particularly cartoons, can sometimes contradict the traditions of dignity and respect known in Algerian society. This can potentially undermine children's deeply rooted values, behaviours and habits and contribute to the adoption of inappropriate behaviours. This research aims to identify the behaviours portrayed in electronic screens containing animated drawings by analysing the content of the YouTube application. YouTube was chosen because it is one of the most popular websites used by children, offering the latest animated content.
